PSG, Chelsea Set for Club World Cup Final as StarTimes Extends Promo

The semi-finals of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup delivered football at its finest, and across Nigeria, fans tuned in live on StarTimes to witness the drama unfold. With goals, surprises, and commanding performances, the two matchdays offered an unforgettable spectacle — and StarTimes ensured viewers enjoyed every moment in high-definition clarity.

In the first semi-final, Chelsea showcased their growing strength under Enzo Maresca with a confident 2-0 victory over Brazilian side Fluminense. The star of the night was new signing João Pedro, who announced himself with two well-taken goals that underlined his potential as a major force in Chelsea’s attack. Though Fluminense gave a spirited account of themselves, their efforts fell short against the composure and tactical efficiency of the English side.

The second semi-final brought the most unexpected result of the tournament. Paris Saint-Germain dismantled European giants Real Madrid in a commanding 4-0 win that stunned many. Midfielder Fabián Ruiz put in a performance of the highest calibre, scoring twice and controlling the midfield throughout. Ousmane Dembélé added a goal and an assist before being subbed off, and Gonçalo Ramos completed the rout. Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappé — once PSG’s poster boy and now wearing the Madrid jersey — struggled to make an impression against his former teammates, who were in complete control from start to finish.

The results set up a highly anticipated final between Chelsea and PSG, two clubs with ambition, quality, and something to prove on the global stage. The final is scheduled for Sunday, July 13 at 8 p.m., and will be broadcast live on StarTimes World Football channels (254/245). For a more relatable experience, fans can also enjoy Pidgin English commentary on Beta Sports Channel 244.
